4-day live program in a unique setting with 350 shipping containers across an area of 20,000 m2.

Here to stay. An allnew event format is moving into its fourth year!

As PHOTOPIA starts to get set for another year, there can be no doubt that the industry along with all visitors and target groups have been bowled over by the all-new format. The many innovations lying in store once again in the year ahead demonstrate that, not only will the show go on, but it’s about to get even better. With the Content Creator World, for example, there will be a new special area for the hottest segment in town. B2B and B2C target groups, imaging experts, and smartphone users will be able to find all the things they are interested in even more easily, with everything embedded in a hall concept based around 350 shipping containers, which will return in 2024 – along with a few surprises – following its great success and at the request of all the participants and visitors.
